"..." Xing Fei didn't know what to say for a moment, and after a while she finally spoke: "Why...why did you try to match me up with Lin Que?"
"Do I need to explain why?" Mrs. Lin said earnestly, "Auntie likes you."
"..."
"I've seen all kinds of girls over the years, but I like your straightforward and unpretentious personality!"
Holding Xing Fei's hand, the two acted like a mother and daughter. As they walked, Madam Lin complained, "You have no idea how spoiled those young girls are these days! They have so many demands! They want to eat well and dress well, always dressed like little princesses. Do they even earn a penny of their own money?"
"If Lin Que were to marry me a daughter-in-law like that, I'd lock him up with the dogs! Is he marrying a wife or worshipping ancestors?!"
"Auntie likes it when you're ambitious! I don't expect you to be exceptionally talented, but at least you should understand the hardships your parents face and know how to work hard."
After strolling around with Mrs. Lin for a while, Xing Fei received a call from her company.
"I'm near the company, I'll be right there. You can prepare the documents and contracts first."
After hanging up the phone, Xing Fei said to Mrs. Lin, "Auntie, I have a dinner engagement tonight, so I won't be able to keep you company."
Mrs. Lin expressed her understanding and quickly said, "Go and get busy, work is the most important thing."
After saying goodbye to Mrs. Lin, Xing Fei returned to the company and then led her team to the hotel she had booked with the client.
ZN has partnered with the Lorna Group and has now established a foothold in the luxury goods industry. Since Ji Zhinan became pregnant, she has only visited the company occasionally, leaving project collaborations to Xing Fei.
Today we're meeting a major client, so Xing Fei is personally making the appearance.
When Xing Fei arrived with her entourage, the other party was already seated in the private room. Upon seeing Xing Fei bring her people in, President Luo's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up.
"Are you Miss Xing? Hello, hello."
Xing Fei shook hands with him in a businesslike manner: "Hello, Mr. Luo."
Mr. Luo chuckled: "You silly child, I've had dinner with your father before. You should call me Uncle Luo, not Mr. Luo. That's too formal..."
Seeing his expression, Xiao Fei understood immediately. She decisively withdrew her hand, still wearing a polite smile: "Normally, I should call him Uncle Luo, but today we're here to discuss work, so it's better to be more formal to avoid being misunderstood."
Since Xing Fei had said that, President Luo naturally had nothing to say, and simply chuckled in response: "You're right, young people are always more thoughtful."
After a round of insincere pleasantries, Xing Fei led her people to sit down, and she took the contract from her assistant.
"Mr. Luo, you know why I'm here today. To be honest, ZN highly values the technology under your command, Mr. Luo, so we sincerely want to cooperate with you. This is our contract. Mr. Luo, please take a look and see if there's anything you're not satisfied with. We can discuss it."
General Manager Luo didn't even glance at the contract Xing Fei handed him. "Manager Xing, let's not talk about work during a meal..."
Xing Fei awkwardly put the contract away.
The waiter quickly served all the dishes, during which time Mr. Luo kept secretly observing Xing Fei.
He had indeed dined with Xing Minggao before, but that was many years ago. Back then, Xing Fei was just a little girl. Now, after several years, she has grown into a beautiful young woman.
